Welcome to CharisBible College!Starting a Bible college wasthe last thing I ever thoughtI would do, but on June 23,1993, I clearly heard from theLord to start a Bible college.I was to take 2 Timothy 2:2 —“And the things that thou hastheard of me among manywitnesses, the same committhou to faithful men, who shallbe able to teach others also” — and use it as a framework fora Bible school.Since Charis Bible College opened in 1994, the schoolhas grown to multiple campuses around the world andhas graduated thousands of students. Through DistanceEducation, you can take all thirty-nine courses in Charis’sfirst-year curriculum.As you listen to and apply these lessons, you will be changedeffortlessly and see that change influence every area of yourlife — family, work, and ministry.Whatever God is leading you to do, preparation is never awaste of time. The investment of your time in these coursesis a small price to pay for a lifetime of success.You are blessed!ANDREW WOMMACK - President & Founder
